My question is: did something about the way the special method names are
implemented change for new-style classes?
I believe the difference is that for new-style classes, when special
methods are called 'behind the scenes' to implement built-in syntax and
methods, they are looked up directly on the class instead of first on
the instance. Note that functions attached to instances are *not*
methods and do not get combined with the instance as a bound method.
